Ted Sheridan Poems

She bent over exposing her love to my hungry eyes
The smell of county apples filled my nostrils void
And caressed my naked lips with bliss
As I buried my humble face in her 3.14
...

There is just something very sexy
about the way she twists and plays
with that short section of fine hair
on the left side of her pretty head; wrapping
...

You had better tell her....your new lover
before she starts moving in
toothbrush first
then a comb and hair dryer
...

Another day spent in my Hell
Alone with my maturity and the pain
The sun is hanging out in a blue sky
And the air is cool and dry for a change
...

Tony picked up a sharp knife from the Diner's table
and holding it to the seeded throat
of yet another Big Mac...he sealed his fate
Too much special sauce on too much white bread
...

I couldn't get any sleep last night what with the heat
Since Vietnam I don't use air conditioning only a fan
The contrasted adjustments my body has to make
Therefore are not that great or greatly reduced
...

I went to the store with the list my wife gave me
She told me not to buy anything but what she had said
I was very disappointed to see only the staples
Like that of whole grain bread and Smart Balance Spread
...

uncle dear uncle
what have you done?
of your sister's many children
all are now dead but one....
...

She was to come to our house
around five pm to have dinner with us
She had specifically requested
her Mother's family recipe for pepper steak
...

I look to the left for they claim to have answers
To all the unanswered questions and hanging shads
But I see corruption and hear more of their defeatist rhetoric
The same kind of crap I had spit on me during my tours in Vietnam
...
